Yesterday, the Telford Borough Police Department, alongside the Telford Fire Company, had the privilege of assisting Mr. and Ms. Santa Claus in delivering presents and holiday cheer to local children in need through The Giving Tree event.
We were truly humbled by the incredible response from our community. The Giving Tree went live and nearly all of the children were selected that same weekend. With minimal promotion, community members came together and selflessly supported 35 children have a brighter holiday season. Hundreds of gifts were donated, including toys, gift cards, clothing, bicycles, books, and more.
Even beyond that, additional community members reached out to donate extra gifts and wrapping supplies, which were distributed among the children. The generosity shown was nothing short of amazing.
From all of us at TBPD, thank you to our community for your kindness and support for this event.
Each holiday season, our department is also fortunate to receive cards, baked goods, meals, and donations from local residents and businesses. We are truly grateful to serve such a supportive borough.
We would like to extend a special thank you to Officer Erica Robbins for organizing our first Giving Tree event and managing all of the logistics involved. We also thank the Indian Valley Public Library for hosting the Giving Tree itself, the members of the Telford Fire Company for donating their time and trucks for the gift run, and our police personnel for assisting with deliveries and gift wrapping.
From our department to you and your families, we wish you a wonderful holiday season. Thank you again for your continued support.
